Bottle. Pours a hazy darkish amber color with a small off-white head. Sweetish malty hoppy aroma with some nutty hints. Sweet malty sugary hoppy bitter flavor. Long warming malty finish with a long hoppy bitter aftertaste.

Bottle. As Ølfabrikken is one of my favourite breweries I might have prejudices that their brewer will have to deal with. I expect the best. Head is light brown, creamy and thick looking, promising. Body very dark brown and hazy. Relatively mild aroma without alcohol notes but more like sweet coffee plus vineous notes. Flavor quite different from my expectations. Coffee, yes, but very creamy and buttery but still with caramel and hops in the backgrond. Low carbonation and a long aftertaste. Ølfabrikken remains one of my favourites !

Shared by Christian himself. Poured a hazy brown with a creamy beige head. The aroma was sweet and malty. Light alcohol in the nose. Nice malty flavor with hoppy citrus and light pine. Tasty with a full body. Very warming.

Bottle at Plan B – we brought. Cloudy red/brown – offwhite head. Sweetness, overriped fruits, bread, caramel, yeasty, berries, wineous, earthy, light alcoholic finish. A bit too much sweetness and yeast.
